My dad always used to tell me that sometimes you have to have a massive storm in order to clear the sky.

For me, the '60s in the automotive industry was awesome. The cars are heavy, huge, rolling works of art.

I love to shop. Clothes, electronics, and I love jewelry, especially yellow gold.

We all naturally want to become successful... we also want to take shortcuts. And it's easy to do so, but you can never take away the effort of hard work and discipline and sacrifice.

I could never focus on my upper body as a skater, so I'm enjoying having symmetrical upper and lower body muscle.

In school I studied international business and marketing, so I've always been attracted to business.

Vancouver is an amazing city and luckily, growing up in the Seattle area, I was able to immerse myself into the culture at a young age, traveling back and forth across the border for skating competitions as a youngster.
